5spd here

 

no one in my family can drive stick so i HAD to get an automatic

 

i got auto... comes with paddle shift too

 

*high five* for 5speed

 

Technically they're both 5spds... :P

I got the manual.
It's at least 1000000000x more fun to drive.

 

chill guys this is not a fight this poll is for all the talk of the rare 5spd so lets see if the auto votes goes off the charts...hopefully everyone in the US goes by this thread...and Canada 2

 

auto wife only has 1 leg

 

I couldnt imagine driving an automatic, especially in a 109hp car... thank goodness for the 5spd, it really makes the Fit feel fun to drive.

 

Only Flaw I see is that a lot of fit enthusiasts will be manual drivers...and many if not most Auto Fit buyers won't know about the forum....sure I might sound short sighted and narrow minded. But I see a larger amount of fits driven by middle aged women and elderly people.

 

Yeah funny thing is every time I drive by a dealer and i see a fit i might stop by and take a look to see if its a manual or automatic and I have yet to see a manual tranny fit. Mine is stick (i know both versions are 5 speed, my mistake) but I also concur that most people who drive the automatic version of the Fit are probably gas conscious older people who really don't care about performance so they're probably not on this forum.

 

5 speed only!

 

manual for me, i forgot how to drive automatics lol

 

auto because of wifey.

 

5 Speed all the way!!!

 

I still like my auto.

I have manual first and second, D3 that stretches the shifts the harder I tromp the gas and shift into D around 80 K.

I always start off in 1st. in cold weather to stop the tranny from shifting cold.

 

Went with the 5 sp manual

 

What if I have one of each??

 

there are a bunch of guys in here that have opted for the auto cause the long wait of the 5spd they were not going to deal with...if my only choice was only automatic i would not be in this forum

 

i opted for auto just to play with tthe paddle shifters. if i was interested in a manual i wouldnt have sold my ap1.

 

Not to attack Paulo107, but you guys make it sound like an AT is somethign to be ashamed of. I HAD to get an automatic because no one else in my family can drive stick. Becasue i'm a mechanic, i take everyoen elses car and they drive mine. I also do LOTS of rush hour driving in downtown vancouver and a manual gets REALLY annoying. Dont' get me wrong, i LOVE driving stick, i used to have a STI, but at this point in time, an AT works alot better.

I bet you wouldn't have even bought a Fit
